The part numbers for the GR (MR160272) and GPX (MR160273) are different, also, the GPX bore is wider. I would doubt that the centre sections are interchangable.

While the GPX bore is wider it can fit with some modifications to the mounting flange. A few guys in the UK have GPX exhausts on their GR's.

Would fitting a GPX exhaust on a GR have a similar effect to an aftermarket exhaust, in particular unleash some nags? Or would the bore be too big and you loose back pressure?

Sticking on a whole GPX exhaust is one thing, mating the centre section to the backbox and downpipe might not be so straightforward.....

Agreed - you would likely need centre section and backbox.
